phpbb3 has been deleted from Debian (Bug # 816655) and also from Ubuntu in Y and on. However, it seems upstream phpbb3 has updated their base to be compliant with PHP7 (e.g. https://tracker.phpbb.com/browse/PHPBB3-13657?jql=text%20~%20%22php7%22). In this case, given the abandonment in Debian, it might be most appropriate to update the major version of phpbb3 to a level supporting PHP7. Let me see if uscan/uupdate work on the source package and I will try to provide a build in a PPA to test.
Thank you for filing this bug report.
